Asian markets ended mostly lower on Monday as spreading of corona virus outbreak outside China fueled worries about the impact on global economic growth. South Korea raised its corona virus alert to the ‘highest level’, while Italy and Iran confirmed an uptick in corona virus infections. Chinese shares ended lower as new cases of corona virus flared outside China, offsetting assurances from Beijing that it would step up policy adjustments to help cushion the blow to its epidemic-hit economy. Meanwhile, the Japanese markets were closed for the Emperor's Birthday holiday.
